Greetings, new member here

Post by dhammond734 »

Hello fellow advocates. I am a 39yo father of 3 living in Columbus, OH. I have recently become a first time gun owner. (9mm XDS) My 2nd one is a Springfield Saint in layaway at the moment. I have taken the CCW class and received my certificate. I just need to make an appointment to fill out an application at the sheriff's dept. Unfortunately I work out of town most weeks and don't have much time through the week to set an actual date for it :( Take care and be careful. See you in the forums!

Welcome to the OFCC forums! If you would like to become active as an advocate, you sure live in the right place - keep an eye on the forums here for opportunities to participate in legislative action days where we send teams to the Statehouse to advocate for pro gun legislation (and of course against anti-gun measures.)

Welcome! Be sure to check those counties around you. Some may have open hours where it's first come, first served so no need to make an appointment. Looking at an Ohio county map shows you could also apply in Delaware, Union, Madison, Pickaway, Fairfield, and Licking county.

It an XDS 3.3" And I just picked up my Springfield Saint this past Friday. Didn't have much time to spare for the range. Only put 60 rounds of 5.56 through it.
